We know wiring is hard. Let’s make it easier.
You are going to need these:
4 Wire Nuts (these are in the bag)
Follow these steps to get your fan wired quickly and safely. Follow the route below that best matches your wall switch
setup. If you are unfamiliar with wiring or uncomfortable doing it yourself, please contact a qualied electrician.
Wiring the Fan
Hunter Pro Tip:
Here is how to connect the wires:
Push the bare metal ends of the wires together and slide a wire
nut over them. Then, twist the wire nut clockwise until tight.
Give it a gentle pull to make sure none of the wires are loose.
Connect the 2 grounding
wires (green, green/
yellow stripe, or bare
copper) coming from the
ceiling and ceiling plate.
Connect the black wire
(ungrounded) from the
ceiling to the black
wire from the receiver.
Connect the white wire
(grounded) from the ceiling
to both the white wire from
the receiver and the white
wire from the fan.

(clockwise rotation). To change the direction
of air ow, turn the fan off and let it come to a
complete stop. Slide the reversing switch to the
opposite position. Restart the fan.
Updraft (clockwise rotation)
creates a more indirect airow.
Updraft airow is great for
moving warm air downward.
Downdraft (counterclockwise
rotation) creates a direct breeze
and maximum cooling effect.
